2006 CLS for 3k

I've not viewed it, but he literally always has a silver CLS for sale :pac:

Duke O Smiley

Picked this up this morning



Its a long wheel base 730d. Spec is only ok, rear iDrive, rear blinds, heated seats front and back and - curiously - night vision. The main thing I am missing are comfort seats, which really transform an E65/66. Miles are relatively high at 220k but it drives sweet. Glides along on the small wheel/big tyre combo too. Its an original Irish car with only three owners

Another sub €4K W221, looks fairly respectable although a change of ownership on 6/6/20 would raise a few red flags. No history of it being a SPSV.

It's a weird one, but the mismatched reg's are singing to me.

The W221 are now getting into the range where I’d feel comfy taking a chance on one of them.

CLS wheels under it

The silver one you posted the last day looked a gem. Nicer spec on the black one, and much nicer colour combo

Would definitely like to have one at some stage soon-ish

310k miles, it certainly earned its keep anyway.

I'd take that over the 7'er above.
Really like the cls. Pity about the color.

The merc has just popped up on Facebook marketplace, Andrew Norman must have a split personality disorder lol.

Can't see much interest with the mileage TBH at that price, or close to it.
Wonder is it still 310k

Yet another sub €4K W221

https://www.donedeal.ie/view/25132629

Looking very dog eared and not a straight panel on it. Meh

Asking price is a tad over budget but petrol v8s are in short supply in here....

if anyone happens across a petrol w221 in black with a cream interior and a few toys, before posting it here just throw me a PM :pac: , a few months staying out of the pub I'm cash ready for another barge and I just can't escape the 221s appeal.

I’m waiting for a cheap one needing bodywork, i’d like to spray it firetruck red and get facelift wheels and body kit for it.

Are the s 350s reliable machines ? What’s the torque like on em? I’d say they’re fairly heavy

Wish I hadn't looked at that advert now, it should have been posted with a disclaimer. Only saving grace is the skirts won't fit an LWB - at least that's what I'm telling myself.

Quite reliable for a modern diesel tbf.
Leaks from oil cooler are inevitable though .......... bit of a job to change them, there's updated seals though so once done with them should be ok going forward.

having looked into it extensively the w221 is the most reliably of the Celtic tiger/ post Celtic tiger barges in every flavour, it has its issues but reliability is ahead of most of the e65 variants and the A8 of the same era. The ls460 is the most reliable one but just not as plush as its German rival.

08 S320, exlimo even though the seller said it’s a ex taxi?

€3250.

You'd think he'd stick 12 months tax on her before selling, and before the new owner has to change ownership type to the more expensive tax!

Going by the name of the seller and the name on the spsv Licence they aren’t the same person.

Some people would argue that spsv tax cannot be used privately, not me however. That said I haven’t paid full tax on anything in over 13 years. The two cars I own cost €151 for the year for both cars to tax.

The two cars I own cost 120 for the year to tax. (Tesla model S = 120 and your old carina, in storage, 0 per year to tax!)




But yeah, strictly speaking it's not valid if you change ownership class, but a garda seeing a valid (ie not a fake) disc in the window won't know or care that it's PSV tax.

I wouldn't be so sure about that, the recruits being spat out of Templemore are much more clued in on tax classes than your 25year's service small town plod..

Vehicle license expired before the tax I'd imagine.

I'm getting rid of the CL500 to concentrate on the others if you're interested

2008 60,159 new cars registered in Dublin........ reg would suggest that one in an import, likely the odometer is in miles so.

Lad I know just landed an as-new E66 760Li from Japan. It's literally a new car, not a mark anywhere on it inside or out, like a time capsule from 2008. Some value when you think about it.

How much was it landed?

LCI model?
I do love the e66 760li, there was one for sale here for sub 10k not so long ago.

Not for me to say, but not much at all. VRT will be a roll of the dice but that won't be more than €3k.

I know the last seller (using the Irish pseudonym) who had it on marketplace. If he’s not willing to try and offload it to someone there is something majorly wrong [/speculation]

He absolutely hounds me any time I have a 7 series for sale. Wants everything for nothing

Seen the seller on market place, I wouldn't take the time of day off him let alone a car.

‘07 W221, LWB all the toys, taxed and tested until 2021.

I’d expect massive miles and a few electric gremilins.

Yours for €3850.

Tempting.
